So your brake pedal was soft not hard? I have a 96 LX450 that has been parked for about 6 months. When parked brakes worked great. Now I start it and the brake pedal is rock hard, and I was super low on brake fluid (was normal when parked last). Think its a booster? You have to stand on the...
WOW! What a difference in light! The only issue is that there isn't much backing for the double sided tape to stick to. The small LED for the map light would not stick and was bouncing around. While pushing it to stick, 2 little LED lights stopped working! Other than that all are great.
I didn't even think about putting the dead link into the wayback machine. I use it all the time and it still slipped my mind. Thanks for doing that.
A different URL was provided in the middle of this thread, and it is also dead. Even though it appears to be similar to the OP page, here is the...
Believe it or not, but they only quietly clicked at max turn under power. Way less than our 94. Those chirped like birds.
As far as wheeling, we have toned down our wheeling to semi-aggressive dirt and slickrock when in Moab. We just dont have the time anymore for wheeling as much as we used...
So I have been searching for a while and I have not come across the info I am wondering, so I have a couple of questions.
1st - I removed the birfield and before cleaning up noticed that it was pretty lose. I could move the birf in and out about 1/32" or so. It also was "floppy" and was very...
brockdeck, I would go with OEM if you have the funds. If not get the best you can. Our original 94 was smashed by a dumb 16 yr old kid who ran a stop sign and was hit and hit us. On our 96 I tried the aftermarket generics from Autozone due to being dirt poor, and they only lasted about 3 years...
Finished up repairs on the engine wiring harness, changed valve cover gaskets, cleaned and regapped plug, new cap and rotor, cleaned the EGR, ETC. LX drives nice now.
So the wires were found/fixed, valve cover gaskets replaced, spark plugs cleaned and regapped, EGR system cleaned up, ditributor cap and rotor replaced. After it was all buttoned up, it fired right up and idled smooth. Drove about 20 miles and the engine seems better than anytime we had it...
No I fixed it before I even thought of pics. The metal piece it shorted on was the vertical metal that looks like it's there to support the injector wire. Mine wasn't supported just resting on it. This is injector#6.
So while inspecting the wire harness, I did not find any wires shorted out. I then inspected the injector line to the #6 injector and noticed that the yellow/blue wire had shorted against the vertical metal piece. It rubbed through the shield and insulation and it had noticeable scorching on...
Ocho77, the top of the motor is already torn apart... Oh well, I will do all the PM that I have listen and still do what you did just in case. Cant hurt, right?
I was not paying attention to the fuel usage, as I was just hoping that it didn't die a hour away from home. I have checked the ECU harness behind the glove box and also right at the EGR. I will expose even more of the harness in the engine bay and try to get a closer look.
In the cap? If so then no evidence of it, just the contacts look pretty worn. Same worn viewed on the rotor. The plug doesnt look like its arcing anywhere but to the ground strap.
